Thanks for the welcome! I'm still confident that the audio will be of a similar quality, I was just a little disappointed given that it was a feature I was excited about, having experience with high-end home systems including Meridian in the past. You're right though, I'm sure if I'd not known about the change I wouldn't have even noticed. Regardless, it was interesting context from the employee I felt was worth sharing. My overall level of excitement for the truck remains sky high.First, it’s great that he even knew about the change and had apparently listened to both. I would still not make any judgments based on 1 or even several random individuals opinions. How your ears hear it would depend on so many other factors. What music you commonly listen to, your age, etc to start with.
Also, you haven’t spent significant time listening to the Meridian branded system to be able to immediately hear differences. As you saw in this thread, OP has both systems and didn’t even know it until he read about the change here. Others who have both say they are both good. People with only the Rivian system also say it sounds good. And at least for now, the components under the speaker covers are still meridian.
If it sounds good to you, that’s all that matters.
Also, welcome!
